Could anyone give me an idea if these were ever produced as a standard and if so are they looked as being rare or sought after vehicles etc any information would be fantastic. thanks

Meant to say Traveller automatics...

All minors came from the factory with a manual gearbox.

Thanks Dan, was there ever a company offering an option or do all the autos we now see come from donor cars, marinas etc ?

[d_harris]

As far as I know all auto conversions are homebrew. I dare-say one or two have been done professionally, but I'm not aware of any companies that have advertised it as a service.

Once again, manty thanks for the info.

They do exist though, using Marina running gear normally.

thanks, would you think that an auto box specified, would generally mean a larger engine has been fitted also ?

yes it usual to take the 1300 engine that was in the marina as well.
